“I was very nervous before I started, I hadn’t acted since I left, and that was seven years ago. I was having that actor’s nightmare that you’re on stage, it’s opening night of a play and everyone knows their lines and you don’t.

“But the scripts were a dream and every actor has been given a great story,” she admitted.

When asked if she will be staying long in the soap Claudia told the Herald:

“No, it’s short. I’ve loved it, I had really missed it. I’d been an actor my whole life but I’ve been writing full time so I was nervous.

Return: Claudia’s character is back in Fair City

“People still remember Nicola, even though I’m seven years out of it. It’s astonishing.

“It has been an intense few weeks and when you are doing Fair City you really don’t have time to be doing anything else, your head
must really just be in it.

“I’ve actually just signed a deal for another two books with my publisher Harper Collins in the UK, so I’m thrilled,” she explained.

“I’ve another book to start in January, which has to be finished by June, and edited over the summer.”
